Frequently asked questions

Do we need Copilot licenses to attend?

No, this is an awareness and skills-building session. We demonstrate how Copilot works so you understand its capabilities before committing to licenses, or to maximise licenses you already have.

Is this too technical for non-IT staff?

Not at all. This training is specifically designed for business professionals with no technical background. We focus on practical 'how to use this for your job' applications, not technical architecture.

Can we customise the content?

Yes, we tailor examples to your industry and specific use cases. During booking, let us know your primary challenges—email management, document creation, data analysis, etc.—and we'll focus on those areas.

What happens after the training?

You'll receive a prompt library, quick reference guide, and access to follow-up support. We also offer advanced sessions for teams ready to dive deeper into role-specific workflows and automation.

Why only 4 people maximum?

The interactive, collaborative format requires small groups. With more than 4 participants, we can't provide personalised guidance or address individual questions effectively. For larger teams, we recommend multiple sessions or our scaled training programmes.
